Ezekiel6:5
5 And I will lay the dead carcases of the children of Israel before their idols, and I will scatter your bones round about your Altars.
Expose to open shame, while the Carcases of Idolaters recal to mind their shameful folly and sin.
Either of such as are newly slain. Or, such as the Chaldeans did dig out of their Graves in spite, contempt, or covetousness, hoping to find some costly Ornaments buried with them, so God fulfills that of Lev. 26.30.
You shall thus be a defilement to your supposed sacred Altars and Worship, and an abhorrence to beholders.
As unworthy to be laid up in Earth, who had so highly provoked the God of Heaven; they are made dung who served dunghill Gods.
